Well Nolan is viewed as the saviour of cinema and can do no wrong in the eyes of many (do you remember the hype about how Tenet would save the industry after covid?). Coppola, on the other hand, is now 85 and many years removed from being considered the great auteur he once was. Personally, I will take Coppola over…

Most of these twits have no idea what you are talking about. I do, but they do not.
